Description

The object of this research is the production technology of muffins with pumpkin paste. The task was to enrich muffins with pumpkin paste.

The influence of different amounts of pumpkin paste on the physicochemical and sensory parameters of muffins was investigated. It has been established that the addition of pumpkin paste reliably (p≤0.05) increases the content of vitamin A (RAE), as well as indicators of integrated score, baking, shrinkage, and moisture content of the muffin. The volume of muffins is significantly reduced by adding 10–50 % of pumpkin paste. This trend is due to the high humidity of pumpkin paste.

Owing to a sociological survey, it was determined that most respondents (55 %) liked muffins whose content of pumpkin paste was 15–20 %. It should be noted that 30 % of respondents liked muffins whose content of pumpkin paste was 25–30 %. This trend is due to the fact that the smell and taste of pumpkin in a muffin with the addition of 15–20 % of pumpkin paste is leveled by aromatic compounds. Increasing the amount of pumpkin paste to 25–30 % determines the average level of pumpkin sensory sensation.

In the technology of muffin production, it is optimal to add 15–20 % of pumpkin paste. According to this formulation, the integrated score of vitamin A (RAE) is 21–23 %, humidity – 22.9–25.9 %, baking shrinkage – 8.9–10.0 %, shrinkage due to drying – 2.1–2.2 %, volume – 166–177 cm3/100 g of dough. The porosity is 7–9 points, surface color - light brown, crumb color – yellow, crumb consistency – soft, pumpkin taste level – weak or absent (7.0–8.3 points).

A distinctive feature of the results is the differentiated use of pumpkin paste in the muffin recipe. Based on the survey, it was established that the amount of pumpkin paste could be 15–20 % and 25–30 %.

The devised recommendations can be used by confectionery enterprises of low productivity during the production of muffins.
